Hi Damianmhanley! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia – it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you.

 * If you have reliable sources that discuss the use of this mnemonic in Irish schools, an article addition would be possible. 331dot (talk) 12:44, 14 March 2021 (UTC)

Hi, a reliable source would be that the Irish Department of education listed it as a resource: https://www.scoilnet.ie/search/resource/entity/show/Lre/33553/ It has also being listed on school resource websites http://www.schooldays.ie/education-news-item/In-the-Company-of-Huskies-reinvent-how-kids-Remember-the-Rainbow-to-support-diversity And RTE featured it on theor school hub programme and online resource material.

Does this verify it ok? Thank You.

Please help me with... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ROYGBIV

Hi, I am not totally sure how to do thuis - but I am trying add information to the ROYGBIV page about a new system to remember the colours of the rainbow that has been adopted by schools in Ireland. I was asked to provide a reliable source. The source would be that the Irish Department of education listed it as a resource: https://www.scoilnet.ie/search/resource/entity/show/Lre/33553/ It has also being listed on school resource websites http://www.schooldays.ie/education-news-item/In-the-Company-of-Huskies-reinvent-how-kids-Remember-the-Rainbow-to-support-diversity And RTE featured it on theor school hub programme and online resource material.

Does this verify it ok? Thank You. Damianmhanley (talk) 08:10, 24 March 2021 (UTC)
 * No. These seem to be primary sources with which you have a connection. This represents a conflict of interest situation and you would at a minimum need to disclose your affiliation with the publicity effort.  — jmcgnh (talk) (contribs) 09:16, 24 March 2021 (UTC)
